Pro-Lok AO-10 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Pro-Lok AO-10 Slim Jim actually do on a vehicle door?
The AO-10 is a slide lock tool. It slides down between the window glass and the outer door panel so you can reach the lock rods and linkages inside the door and work the lock open. Pro-Lok calls it the Original Slim Jim, and it's the long reach style of car opening tool rather than an inflatable wedge and rod setup.
2) Is the Pro-Lok Slim Jim meant for professional locksmiths or general consumer use?
It's classed as a commercial tool, sold as automotive opening equipment for locksmiths, repo and towing operators, and fleet or MRO shops that open their own vehicles. It is not a consumer gadget, and most jurisdictions restrict who may carry car opening tools, so buy it under the credentials you already work with.
3) Slim Jim or a long reach tool with an air wedge, which should I use?
The AO-10 works down inside the door skin to catch the lock linkage, so it's the choice on vehicles where the rods are reachable from inside the panel. On newer cars with side airbags, wiring looms and shrouded linkages inside the door, most openers move to a long reach tool used through a wedged door gap so nothing inside the panel gets snagged. Many techs carry both and pick by vehicle.
4) Is the AO-10 a complete car opening kit or a single tool?
Single tool. The AO-10 is the Slim Jim itself, not a kit, so if you want wedges, a long reach rod, or vehicle-specific opening instructions, those are ordered separately.
5) Does the Pro-Lok AO-10 come in more than one size or model?
One model only, the AO-10. There are no length, finish or configuration choices to specify when you order it.
